Often, people rent out AirBnB’s in residential communities and this usually does not work out too well. Many times, the prior guests have soured the neighbors on anyone renting a vacation home next to them as a short-term rental. Either the prior guests were rude, too loud, or threw a party; in either case, neighbors can be less than welcoming to other people staying in these properties.

Go through OrlandoVacation.com or another management company rather than going through AirBnB or VRBO. The national companies take on an extra 20% to 25% for their marketing efforts. If you deal directly from the source, you can save yourself this extra money.

Book Early - Book a vacation home in the off-season. September is the weakest month for Kissimmee vacation home bookings, but this is a great time for you to book your home even if you are going to be staying in March or April of the following year.

Stay during the week and avoid weekends if possible. The vacation homes in Kissimmee Florida are usually 90% booked on the weekends, and Friday and Saturday nights is when the rates are higher. If you stay Sunday through Thursday you could save yourself as much as 25%.

It works just like insurance, and it is not refundable when you check-out.

Pool Heat - Vacation homes with pools in Kissimmee fees for pool heat usually range from $20 to  $40 a day. The weather in Kissimmee is usually anywhere from mild to hot so you only really need to consider ordering pool heat in February through April, the other times of the year the pool water will be warm enough to swim in.
